Robert Fripp是不仅是前卫艺术摇滚乐队King Crimson的主脑与主音吉他手,同时也是摇滚史上最伟大的前卫吉他手与发明家之一。
A Blessing of Tears收录的是1995年Fripp在美国西海岸巡演过程中的现场表演。与以往不同的是这次Fripp在音乐中渗透了对此前过世的母亲的追念,丝丝入扣,以情动人。
When Robert Fripp's mother passed away in 1993, he chose the new age sounds of his soundscape series to serve as a tribute to her. The liner notes in the CD booklet contain a beautifully written eulogy (by Fripp himself) about the interesting life of his mother Edie. Fripp does an excellent job of conveying his grief in the eight selections that comprise A Blessing of Tears, while his sorrow is evident in some of the tracks' titles ("The Cathedral of Tears," "A Blessing of Tears," etc.). All of the tracks were recorded live during a week-long U.S. West Coast tour, and it differs from the preceding Soundscapes release, Radiophonics, because its sole purpose is obviously not to test his audience's "listening capabilities." Fripp has once again successfully put his most personal and heartfelt feelings into his music, the proof being heard throughout the beautiful A Blessing of Tears: 1995 Soundscapes, Vol. 2.
